Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

Who knows. Trump seems to bomb and not tell until he randomly decides to call in to a talk show somewhere.
Be nice if there was a refusal to carry out acts of war without a declaration of war or a pressing need of self defense
The US hasn't declared war since WWII
There were things like a congressional authorization of the use of military force. We don't even have that
They're just called "conflicts" now.
Turns out all you need to do to ignore the Constitution is change your word choice.
It’s because the American citizens in the military that carry out these atrocities are also horrible assholes.
Actually this was a secret CIA operation which already happened two weeks ago and we were not supposed to know about but Dementia Donny couldn't keep his mouth shut.
So we really do not know what else might be going on.
I mean he literally just had the military bomb some random Nigerians for a “media distraction from #pedotrump”. Let’s see if they keep just following orders now. I’m guessing they probably will.
More than any other country on the planet.
